Google Announces Certified Developer Agency Program

As a part of the Google Developers Agency Program, which was launched in December 2015, Google has also established a new Certified Agency Program at a Developer event in Mountain View, California. The Agency Program is an effort by Google’s Developer Relations team to work closely with development agencies around the world and help them build high quality user experiences. It includes providing agencies with personalized training through local events and hangouts, dedicated content, priority support from product and developer relations teams, and early access to upcoming developer products.

As part of this, Google has now launched certification for those partners that have undergone the required training and have demonstrated excellence in building Android applications using our platforms. Five agencies from India have been certified from India.

“We at Google understand the impact these agencies have on the app ecosystem globally”, said David McLaughlin, who leads the Ecosystem Team in Google Developer Platform Group. “Each agency is responsible for several app releases a year. The more streamlined we can make the experience of developing applications for them, the more high quality apps are available on devices for everyone”

Having worked with various agencies for several months, the Agency Program. The Agency Program will make it easier for clients who’re looking to hire an agency to make an informed decision while also pushing the entire development agency ecosystem to improve.

“Certification for agencies is something we had in mind right from a year ago when we began our pilot. In this time, we have seen expansive growth, with our partners growing from 26 to 54” says Uttam Tripathi who is a Global Lead for Developer Agencies & Partner Program at Google. “We are excited about the impact we can have through this Program, and look forward to further enabling our Partners over the coming months.”
